HERE I STAND
Writer / Producer / Performer Ionie Richards
Director EVEWRIGHT
Duration:13:48 min
Here I Stand is a personal account of a descendant from parents of the Windrush Generation written, performed and narrated by Ionie Richards. The stunning images of Tilbury Bridge Walkway of Memories, an art installation located on one of the walkways where passengers from the Empire Windrush arrived in Tilbury, is used as a backdrop along with an evocative soundtrack. She follows the footsteps of her parents who made that journey from the Caribbean to England in the 1950s with hope and expectations. The work explores their personal struggles, loss and achievements to realise their dreams to make a new life for them and their children.
